If you notice my posts I hardly post anything about the southern haven Hua Hin. Well that's because to get to Hua Hin one has to drive through Rama 2 highway and then Petchaburi, now that because this "highway" is alway jam due to the road condition not as good as like driving to Pattaya where you have proper tollway. Anyway sometimes I still have to go there for work or some good reasons like Sunday where I had to go to Cha Am to attend the wedding. Colleagues brought me to a great restaurant known as Daeng Seafood at this location - https://goo.gl/maps/t1s7gpQdjPE2 Here's the restaurant and some food we ordered

Time to have a drink and then take a short sleep, ready for work after landing

Yet another trip with my boss. Checking in at TG counters TG lounge at Suvarnabhumi airport\ My gin tonic and chicken noodles

Here's a video I made, last part of the video was fun

This is my first time in my 53 years attending a wedding at a beach. Nice, I really enjoyed the efforts put in, very romantic. At Hua Hin area

Nope never

If you've been read g my posts you'll know I'm more of a Thai, Western and Japanese food lover. I guess due to a high number of westerners and Japanese expats here these food is good here in Bangkok. However last night I discovered a very good Korean restaurant, I hardly have Korean food as you can see. Restaurant is at Sorabol Sukhumvit Rd, Khwaeng Khlong Tan, Khet Khlong Toei, Krung Thep Maha Nakhon 10110, Thailand +66 2 204 1203 https://maps.app.goo.gl/3rAS5 Started with shochu Then came the beef Then the cooked food, Korean pizza Glass noodle Kimchi soup Ginseng chicken soup with sticky rice Fried tofu Nice spread Think I'm beginning to like Korean food, will be back for more for sure.

Had a simple breakfast at a gas station noodle stall A. Mallika is a very popular noodle chain which can be found in many malls and PTT gas station. A. Mallika is well known for pioneering yentafo noodle which is basically noodle soup with red fermented tofu. Most Thais live yentafo. Typical A. Mallika shop, simple, retro, clean My breakfast Broad rice noodle with fishballs, fish dumpling, tofu stuffed with fish meat, fish skin, wood ear fungus. Doesn't come cheap though 95 baht vs 40-50 baht normally

Away for 2 weeks and this is a must visit restaurant for me Prosecco As always Peppe selected the best meats for his restaurant Burrata Compliment from the chef, salami from his secret stash Fav Primitivo Salad before the heavy stuff Huge live lobster, simply grilled Love them rack Perfect, medium rare

I will buy fresh fish in Bangkok to bring home for reunion dinner. I think can save $10-$20

Whenever I leave Singapore I will tah-bao some dimsum from the coffeeshop bao-stall. Bring it home and throw them in the freezer. And when I wanna eat I will just take what I want and steam it like this this morning Preparing the coffee Ok I finish posting go for breakfast now

Not a big fan of fast food but once a while when on the road peddling my screws will stop by a gas station to eat and today don't know why decided on KFC. So far I think the Thai KFC make the most delicious fried chicken, just my personal opinion Thai KFC also provide free flow soft drinks and free drinking water My 4 pieces chicken costs only $4.70

Bangkok has been rather hazy these days. Video taken 5 mins ago
